does it work well with pasta attachment?

Yes! The pasta attachment is amazing! I've made all of the shapes, but especially like the rigatoni style. Just be sure to check the manual for speed needed, as each shape requires a different speed. Also, after using it often, the best way to clean up, is to set all the pieces out over night and let the extra pasta bits dry in the plate. They will brush right out in the morning.

Hi SundancejanSorry cannot help as I don't have the motor. I have the rest of the bits and the drive is the same for the roller section (to flatten dough) and for the parts that cut the pasta (lasagna), so if the motor is a stand-alone unit then it should work fine with either attachment. The machine works very well with the manual crank.

Don't know yet. The base machine with linguini and spaghetti cutters works very well. Have not used other cutters, including the small ravioli cutter attachment other than the initial waste product cleaning process. the small noodle/crinkle edge attachment looks interesting and want to try it next. If all work as promised, the price is a good one for the entire set. If you don't use it regularly or put a few attachments in deepest recesses of cabinets, they are just expensive toys. The machine itself is top notch.

Just received my set, it comes with 4 attachments of which one of these attachments makes two different types of pasta. One attachment makes spaghetti, one makes ravioli, one makes reginette, and the attachment with two makes fettuccine and tagliolini. It also states it makes lasagne on the box.

The pasta you are cutting should not be wet and or sticky. All I do is brush out any pieces that are around the cutting blades and finish by wiping with a dry towel. I was disappointed with this attachment because the gear that you insert the handle into seems to be plastic and it stripped out after a lot of use. It worked fine until then. Good Luck

I cook pasta for me and my son, with some leftovers. I think it would be okay with smaller amounts of water and pasta, I say go for it. I love the easy drain design, use it for browning ground beef and pouring the grease off as well as for pasta.

I agree with the previous answer, it would work but it isn't as sturdy as the pasta insert but it would be fine.

No but it has a mechanism (pin) that attaches it to a hole in the pasta machine. You may want to verify such hole/slot is present in your pasta machine.

Yes. It says the roller and cutter. It comes with a couple attachments for cutting pasta. My suggestion is use their recipe for the dough. It's good

I do not think so. This attachment is for the marcato pasta machine. The kitchenaid pasta attachment is built differently. You can't attach the marcato attachment to the kitchenaid mixer.

Yes! It works great for steaming vegetables as well as using to cook and drain pasta.

While the drive shaft of the motor should fit the pasta maker, I'm not sure how you would keep the motor from falling out of the maker....mine has a spring-steel clamp that holds it tight to the pasta maker.

I don't know. I have never used it. I have a separate pasta maker that I have had for years. A hand cranked appliance.

It slides on to the press on the same tabs as the fettuccine/spaghetti attachment that came with the press. It attaches very nicely and works well.

No. It comes with 2 studs beside the drive shaft which fit into 2 holes beside the crankshaft hole on certain types of pasta machines. If your model of pasta machine does not have these holes you can't mount this motor. However if you are comfortable drilling metal, it is relativly easy to add them.

No way. You need something like the KitchenAid KPEXTA Stand-Mixer Pasta-Extruder Attachment (it sounds like you're talking about extruded shapes rather than flat cut shapes for which KitchenAid KPRA is excellent though the included recipe is dull and will not make pasta any better than what you can buy, so why bother? Michael Ruhlmann and Wolfgang Puck pasta recipes work well.

I think it is great for pasta. I tried it mixed with all purpose flour for pizza crust, but the texture was too tough. The texture is not as fine as regular flour..
